Detailed Description

C API: 8-bit Unicode handling macros.

This file defines macros to deal with 8-bit Unicode (UTF-8) code units (bytes) and strings.

For more information see utf.h and the ICU User Guide Strings chapter (https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/strings).

Usage: ICU coding guidelines for if() statements should be followed when using these macros. Compound statements (curly braces {}) must be used for if-else-while... bodies and all macro statements should be terminated with semicolon.

    } else { \
        (isError)=true; \
    } \
} UPRV_BLOCK_MACRO_END

Append a code point to a string, overwriting 1 to 4 bytes.

The offset points to the current end of the string contents and is advanced (post-increment). "Safe" macro, checks for a valid code point. If a non-ASCII code point is written, checks for sufficient space in the string. If the code point is not valid or trail bytes do not fit, then isError is set to true.

Parameters

s	const uint8_t * string buffer
i	int32_t string offset, must be i<capacity
capacity	int32_t size of the string buffer
c	UChar32 code point to append
isError	output UBool set to true if an error occurs, otherwise not modified

U8_IS_LEAD

#define U8_IS_LEAD(c)

Is this code unit (byte) a UTF-8 lead byte? (0xC2..0xF4)

Definition utf8.h:181

Counts the trail bytes for a UTF-8 lead byte.

Returns 0 for 0..0xc1 as well as for 0xf5..0xff. leadByte might be evaluated multiple times.

This is internal since it is not meant to be called directly by external clients; however it is called by public macros in this file and thus must remain stable.

Parameters

leadByte The first byte of a UTF-8 sequence. Must be 0..0xff.

Internal:: Do not use. This API is for internal use only.

Definition at line 56 of file utf8.h.

◆ U8_COUNT_TRAIL_BYTES_UNSAFE

#define U8_COUNT_TRAIL_BYTES_UNSAFE ( leadByte ) (((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xc2)+((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xe0)+((uint8_t)(leadByte)>=0xf0))

Counts the trail bytes for a UTF-8 lead byte of a valid UTF-8 sequence.

Returns 0 for 0..0xc1. Undefined for 0xf5..0xff. leadByte might be evaluated multiple times.

This is internal since it is not meant to be called directly by external clients; however it is called by public macros in this file and thus must remain stable.

Parameters

leadByte The first byte of a UTF-8 sequence. Must be 0..0xff.

Internal:: Do not use. This API is for internal use only.

    U8_SET_CP_START(s, start, _u8_get_index); \
    U8_NEXT(s, _u8_get_index, length, c); \
} UPRV_BLOCK_MACRO_END

Get a code point from a string at a random-access offset, without changing the offset.

The offset may point to either the lead byte or one of the trail bytes for a code point, in which case the macro will read all of the bytes for the code point.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

If the offset points to an illegal UTF-8 byte sequence, then c is set to a negative value. Iteration through a string is more efficient with U8_NEXT_UNSAFE or U8_NEXT.

Parameters

s	const uint8_t * string
start	int32_t starting string offset
i	int32_t string offset, must be start<=i<length
length	int32_t string length
c	output UChar32 variable, set to <0 in case of an error

    int32_t _u8_get_index=(i); \
    U8_SET_CP_START(s, start, _u8_get_index); \
    U8_NEXT_OR_FFFD(s, _u8_get_index, length, c); \
} UPRV_BLOCK_MACRO_END

Get a code point from a string at a random-access offset, without changing the offset.

The offset may point to either the lead byte or one of the trail bytes for a code point, in which case the macro will read all of the bytes for the code point.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

If the offset points to an illegal UTF-8 byte sequence, then c is set to U+FFFD. Iteration through a string is more efficient with U8_NEXT_UNSAFE or U8_NEXT_OR_FFFD.

This macro does not distinguish between a real U+FFFD in the text and U+FFFD returned for an ill-formed sequence. Use U8_GET() if that distinction is important.

Parameters

s	const uint8_t * string
start	int32_t starting string offset
i	int32_t string offset, must be start<=i<length
length	int32_t string length
c	output UChar32 variable, set to U+FFFD in case of an error

◆ U8_NEXT

#define U8_NEXT	(	s,

Get a code point from a string at a code point boundary offset, and advance the offset to the next code point boundary.

(Post-incrementing forward iteration.) "Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

The offset may point to the lead byte of a multi-byte sequence, in which case the macro will read the whole sequence. If the offset points to a trail byte or an illegal UTF-8 sequence, then c is set to a negative value.

Parameters

s	const uint8_t * string
i	int32_t string offset, must be i<length
length	int32_t string length
c	output UChar32 variable, set to <0 in case of an error

Get a code point from a string at a code point boundary offset, and advance the offset to the next code point boundary.

(Post-incrementing forward iteration.) "Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries.

The length can be negative for a NUL-terminated string.

The offset may point to the lead byte of a multi-byte sequence, in which case the macro will read the whole sequence. If the offset points to a trail byte or an illegal UTF-8 sequence, then c is set to U+FFFD.

This macro does not distinguish between a real U+FFFD in the text and U+FFFD returned for an ill-formed sequence. Use U8_NEXT() if that distinction is important.

Parameters

s	const uint8_t * string
i	int32_t string offset, must be i<length
length	int32_t string length
c	output UChar32 variable, set to U+FFFD in case of an error

} UPRV_BLOCK_MACRO_END

Get a code point from a string at a code point boundary offset, and advance the offset to the next code point boundary.

(Post-incrementing forward iteration.) "Unsafe" macro, assumes well-formed UTF-8.

The offset may point to the lead byte of a multi-byte sequence, in which case the macro will read the whole sequence. The result is undefined if the offset points to a trail byte or an illegal UTF-8 sequence.

    } \
} UPRV_BLOCK_MACRO_END

Move the string offset from one code point boundary to the previous one and get the code point between them.

(Pre-decrementing backward iteration.) "Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries.

The input offset may be the same as the string length. If the offset is behind a multi-byte sequence, then the macro will read the whole sequence. If the offset is behind a lead byte, then that itself will be returned as the code point. If the offset is behind an illegal UTF-8 sequence, then c is set to a negative value.

start	int32_t starting string offset (usually 0)
i	int32_t string offset, must be start<i

If the offset points to a UTF-8 trail byte, then the offset is moved backward to the corresponding lead byte. Otherwise, it is not modified.

If the string ends with a UTF-8 byte sequence that is valid so far but incomplete, then reduce the length of the string to end before the lead byte of that incomplete sequence.

For example, if the string ends with E1 80, the length is reduced by 2.

In all other cases (the string ends with a complete sequence, or it is not possible for any further trail byte to extend the trailing sequence) the length remains unchanged.

Useful for processing text split across multiple buffers (save the incomplete sequence for later) and for optimizing iteration (check for string length only once per character).

"Safe" macro, checks for illegal sequences and for string boundaries. Unlike U8_SET_CP_START(), this macro never reads s[length].

(In UTF-16, simply check for U16_IS_LEAD(last code unit).)

Parameters

s	const uint8_t * string
start	int32_t starting string offset (usually 0)
length	int32_t string length (usually start<=length)
